I am struggling to get an IBM DTLA-307045 drive attached to a
promise pdc20267 controller to work in DMA mode. Right now,
whenever I enable a DMA mode, I get timeouts when accessing
the drive.
I am using an 80-pin cable, that came with the Promise controller.

Any ideas on how to improve the state of things ? The drive works
in non-DMA mode, but the performance is pretty poor (~ 5 MB/sec
on a 'hdparm -t') - I would like to make it somewhat snappier.
The system is a Pentium/166 with 64 MB RAM, and a built-in PIIX3
chipset. The IBM drive is the only IDE drive in the system, and I
have tried with both the built-in IDE controller disabled and
enabled. Here's the full dmesg:
